Hello Josh, thanks for all your hard work. Had a chance to visit two Pullman Washington wineries yesterday. First was Wawawai Canyon (pronounced WA WA WE) located on hwy. 270 between Pullman and Moscow. Great, complex reds. They make a couple of ‘Jazz’ wines as the official wine for the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival at U of I. I am not going to describe them in an attempt at not sounding stupid. Do yourself a favor and check them out.
The second was Merry Cellars located north of Pullman off Hwy 27 an amazing array of reds and whites, maybe 10 to 12 different varieties and blends including Carmenerre, Tempranillo, Mourvedre. Stop in.
